Good scenery, but bus was old and gave a bumpy ride. Also stopped at 5 places en route, and we had to change buses at Madrid South bus station. Finally arrived at airport 75 minutes late.

A comfortable journey. The bus broke down in Trujillo, but a replacement arrived within one hour.

It was a pleasant bus ride. The last leg from Trujillo to Madrid was 3 hours without a bathroom stop and no bathroom on the bus.
